Jimmy does indeed have a head wound.
Jimmy’s joined a Harry Potter fan club and his initiation tattoo isn’t done.

The t-shirt he is wearing is 39 years old. A 1977 promo shirt for Chicago XI.

Matt says the shirt could use a little ironing.
Jimmy got it from eBay.

15 – Now that Nick Simmons has a man bun it’s time to drop that fad. Also Justin Bieber has one.
No IT Band trouble on this race. 2hr28m on the race. Great time for Jimmy. No injuries on this race, aside from the chaffing.
And NOW he tells us what happened to his head. He started with checking the perimeter (aka the doors).
Jimmy knows his door is on wrong.
20 – He opened his door and leaned in to check the screen door. His head collided with the door. He split his forehead open. Danielle and Oliver thought he was doing a bit until it split open and the blood started. Oliver immediately went for ice (which he does all the time). It was bad enough that he went to urgent care.
A little make up on that and it’s good as new.
